The treasury showcases cufflinks with no moving parts. Why not take a look? It's fascinating to see the different designs and the clever way jewellers manage to make something that is not only beautiful, but does a very important job too.
Here's a link to the treasury:

While you're there, take time to have a good old browse through some of the amazing hand made treasures on Etsy. There are some very talented people out there!
My cufflinks are very simple, but effective. To make them I heated 3g of silver until it formed a pebble shape for the front, did the same with 2g for the back and soldered both to 1cm of 2mm sterling silver round wire.
It just goes to show, things don't have to be complicated and that's just the way I like it!
